AGREED! It’s coming unusable.

One thing on your phone. Hit the back button then close and it at least keeps you on the site.

Please block or something
I have the same issue. It occurs when viewing the mobile pages or desktop pages on iOS for me.

Same issue here, I was receiving redirects at a rate of about 20 an hour. I downloaded an app called "free ad blocker" and it works great! I only use the app to come on RC tech and so far after a week it says it has blocked 1,672 ad's. The app gets used much like the current chrome app, I click that app and I can search right from the app.

These pop ups are horrible! Used to be every now and then, now it is non stop. Mobile only.

Only happens on rctech. No issues on any other sites I browse.

I should have phrased my initial post a little more clearly.

I'm on a mobile device (Iphone 7+ using safari) but I strictly use the "Full site", not the mobile version.

Not sure what the issue is, but the pop ups start within about 30 seconds of visiting rctech.

I have Android running chrome and always use the full site and I got the pop ups constantly until I downloaded the ad blocker.

Thanks for all the help and screenshots everyone. I've been reporting each screenshot I receive to our ad ops so that they can continue to work on this. Thank you so much for your patience.

Full site version on iPhone 6 here. I did follow another’s suggestion to try turning the JavaScript thing off. It does help but alters how thing work. Now if I try with Java back enabled, I’ll get blown up. Had 14 straight couple days back just trying to login.

Installed 1blocker from the App Store on my iPhone 7 Plus and the issue is resolved. It’s free!

Also, I don’t believe this issue is directly related to Rctech. After speaking to my wife and doing some googling, this is pretty common and no one can really pinpoint the origin or a solution other than using certain ad blockers.

Default Misleading popups on mobile when not logged in

Get one of those fake "you have x viruses" and didn't allow you to scroll back. I logged in, doesn't do it. Please reassess the ethics of who advertises here.

thanks for your help!
Download 1blocker from the App Store. The basic version is free but it’s all you need. Once installed, go to settings- safari- content blocker- and then enable 1blocker.

Haven’t had a pop up since.

P.s. I’m not in any way affiliated with the App, just sharing what worked for me.
